SUBSCRIBE!! Let me know what you think about Michael Penix Jr. 👇
Penix was the best qb in the draft, you take him if you can.
wow
@@MathisNFLyea your channel is ass because you have no idea wtf you are talking about.
24 is not old smh QBs play into mid 30s consistently
Yes it is. It’s all relative, rarely any get drafted at 23/24
draft age wise, yeah it is. JJ mccarthy is much younger, 3 years younger. It's a perception of potential at the end of the day
Right a 10-13 year NFL career is all you need, his 2nd contract will be life changing money that I’m positive he will get in ATL even if he sits.
I mean top 10 rookie deals is life changing money@@som3839
Especially the good ones. They typically play into their 40’s
24 is not to old he is only w years older than Aaron Rodgers when he was drafted by greenbay. Kurt Warner didn't make his first start until he was 28.also plenty of qbs have played past the age of 35 and won super bowls
Keep shinning, young man. Your time is coming. I love what the Falcons are doing, Coach Morris is about to do some amazing things with this franchise.
If the falcons viewed penix as QB1 or QB2. You draft him. It's as simple as that. Letting a more pro ready qb sit behind a veteran is a GOOD thing. How you managed to turn that into a negative defies logic.
Falcons have a vet and drafted a rookie to sit behind him. Its as simple as that. Falcons just did what 10 other teams have already done. Regardless of if they just paid kirk or penix is older. Its still the same thing.
When you end up with the best free agent QB and your top 2 QB in the draft its by design not an error. Dear god how to people manage to crtisize a team for getting the best options available is beyond me. Its either hating or a general lack of intelligence.
😂
agreed! I like how all of sudden everyone's an nfl gm now.
Yes it was the talk of the draft. I wanted my Vikings to get Penix. Idc what anyone says, if you think he’s your QB of the future, draft him. When he turns out to be the best QB in this class, a lot of people will have to eat it. QB is the most valuable position in teams sports. If you secure that position for the next 10-12 years, what’s the issue? So many short sighted thinkers. 🤦♂️
@@nobelwarprize I wanted penix on the vikings so bad....qb1 in this draft.
@@MathisNFLyou’re tripping dawg. The only questionable is Penix’s injuries. But he could stay healthy. And if he does? He could be insane.
Kirk Cousins was 26 when he became a full time starter. Age isn't a big deal
It is when you draft someone top 10, not in the 5th round like Cousins.
@@MathisNFL4th round
@@MathisNFLwhat does it matter if they can still give you 10+ years
Having quality players is never trouble.
I think the Penix pick made sense to me because thats what everyone didn’t expect. It’s time to evolve the game to the times. So what that it was an unorthodox pick and doesn’t make sense to most. But this game is getting older and it’s time to shake this shit up. Let’s Fellas. #Riseup #Countup #Runitup
I liked Penix as what some came out and said “the best QB in the draft besides Caleb Williams”. I was on the boat of he’s better than Williams but only time will tell. It made sense but they knew information we didn’t about other teams being on Penix’s radar(which surprised people and I thought he was going 2nd round and we could get him there).
Glad we got him and locked him in prison 😂😂😂
Boy he has a live arm.
If he pans out, ATL is scary 26’ and beyond.
Injuries happen to often to think he won't play
I think this pick was surprisingly smart. Cousins is old and coming off an injury And if he plays well and is healthy it’s not like we can’t trade him. Plenty of teams are interested in acquiring a pro bowl veteran qb. We might even get a first rounder back for him if all goes well
No shot
@Coldestaevadoit I tend to agree with you, however, Cousins’ contract includes a no trade clause. He would have to be traded to a team of his approval. IF they handle it right, big IF, they should be able to get a high pick for him, given he’s still playing at a high level
They aren't going to trade Cousins under any circumstances esp not for a rookie qb. Nah.I question them drafting Penix but maybe they were concerned Cousins might get injured again.
I disagree Penix is ready to play right now. I dont' agree with making rookies play day 1. I would prefer they sit at least one year.
@@arnavlaul2556 when faced with sitting or going somewhere to play, the players with the no trade clause will choose to play. Happens a lot. Contacts rarely go full term without some type of modification or restructuring. It’s actually highly improbable that Kirk is in Atlanta in the 3rd year let alone the 4th year of his contract.
That’s the point. In case cousins isn’t able to play at the level he is expected then penix is able to step right in. It’s damn near genius lol
best quarterback in this draft
Love you bro I admire your game and I always protected your name I see you being the next "GREAT STEVE MCNAIR" 🦅
You making this sound like it's an unfortunate situation. There are 53 players to a roster and it's the responsibility of the GM to put together the best roster possible. They were picking in the top 10 because they're roster, particularly at the QB spot was underachieving
Exactly… so spend 100 million on a defensive player like Christian Wilkins and draft Penix and have him start. It isn’t rocket science.
@@MathisNFLu also have to understand that Raheem and Terry’s jobs are on the line so some wouldn’t risk relying on a rookie QB
@MathisNFL Having Cousins while developing Penix will win the Falcons more games right now and long term than giving 100 million to a defensive player and starting a rookie QB day 1. I agree 100%, this isn't rocket science. Im a Bucs fan and even I can see the genius in the Falcons FO.
@@SecondWindStoriesThank you. I don’t understand how people can’t see that they want to win now AND later. They’re not going to waste another year or two for Pitts, London and Bijan. If they can take the division now then why not do it? Mean time we have a future franchise QB learning and waiting for his time to take over. I’m thinking after two seasons the team will belong to Penix. Unless Cousins gets hurts then it’s sooner than that.
@@SecondWindStories Thank you, I just basically typed out this whole comment thread. I’m a Falcons fan and this was absolutely a chess move I was begging them to make. Guys like this channel’s owner are the Browns GM.
At Kirk’s age, he merely a bridge QB. The Falcons are still looking for a long term solution at QB. Selecting Penix now makes sense. Falcons were never one player away from winning a championship. The only question now is if Penix is truly the long term solution.
Everyone is talking about how bad the Penix pick is for the Falcons. Well, if my memory serves me correctly, my Falcons haven't had quality QB's for since Matt Ryan left a couple of seasons ago. Despite the dismal QB play, the Falcons still almost made the playoffs. Now, we sign Cousins who is older and coming off a serious injury. We didn't have a good backup QB option for Cousins, so the Falcons took the best option available for THEM, not everybody else's opinion. Why is everyone ignoring the logic of having a good backup that will be an eventual starter? The critics act like the draft is an exact science and it's not. The Penix pick will prove it's value over time.
If any year proved that you needed a good backup QB it was last year 🤣
So the falcons should've picked a worse quarterback in JJ because he's less pro ready? Lmaaao clown shit
Because he’s 3 years younger and fits the timeline of sitting behind someone
@@MathisNFL This makes zero sense. Why pass on the guy who's already at the level you hope mccarthy can get to. 😂😂. Take the guy at the higher starting point.
@@MathisNFL do some research on how many project players never end up developing into NFL caliber players.
As if JJ or any other achieving “pro readiness” is a guarantee? Lmfao, go ask any NFL scout about guarantees when it comes to drafting QBs! Penix was the east choice for anyone with brain. That’s not coming from a falcons homer either.
He will see the field this year. Almost every backup quarterback played last season.
👀
Pennix can play, it’s his injury history. But, if he can stay healthy, he will ball out. And like to see how he does in big games.
Penix was my favorite QB in the draft. I said if he's there at 2 then get him. I was pissed we got him at 8. Had the entire defense to choose from. I'm happy we have a QB to groom. Penix needed to be sat. He didn't need to be a year one starter. Needs to get fully healthy and work on mechanics at the pro level. He's going to be good. Capt Kirk is going to be good too. Offense... Stacked... Interior defensive line... Stacked. Line backers... Top 5 tandem. Secondary.... Suspect at CB2 and beyond. Safety... Top 3. Teams are going to move the ball on us in the air. They won't have much success in the run game. Hopefully not another year of watching QBs make crazy plays on us.
Cant wait to see him in preseason
They sent the whole coaching staff dang there to see his pro day what you mean blind sided
Great problem to have🥳RIZE’UP’
I know why we picked Michael penix jr, so if Kirk cousins gets hurt again then we can put in a good QB so we won’t have to put in like Taylor Heineke and the last black left handed QB we had was Mike Vick and we all know how that turned out
I swear to God, the sports media world are falcon haters.
Bro Falcons are buns
Should’ve never gave cousins that much money
yep
I agree.
to you , ofcourse it is. To football organizations, no.
They did penix dirty
Desmond ridder looked good until he played in the regular season.
😭
Ridder never had a quality position coach or head coach.
I always say this Ridder really didn’t get a fair chance. He clearly had the skills to be great but he didn’t have anyone to unlock that talent. And it’s actually depressing honestly
@@Unknown78437 agreed
@@Unknown78437 I had hoped they would keep both Ridder and Penix.
You call them errors, I call them a difference of opinion.
Not been discussed? I can't read about the Falcons without the author writing about Penix.
National level
I don't wanna see him outside of the preseason for at least 2 years
The man can throw the ball better than anyone else in the draft plus he will be cheap compared to other backup QBs that have less talent next year if doesn’t take over starting job by then. They can lock him down for 4 to 5 years on rookie deal.
We are banking that Cousins stays healthy which at his age, I wouldn't count on
😪
@3:55 Statements like this is why it’s always so funny listening to people who don’t actually watch your team. They said they didn’t expect Penix to be there but if he was, he was the pick. Now a lot of teams say that after that pick the guy so take that with a grain of salt. They were so scarred from the last two years and with the Matt Ryan debacle and how he left, they went and got two studs. Understand this, you don’t go from not ever having a good franchise QB to MF Michael Vick who prematurely goes TO JAIL, then hop straight to the ACTUAL best QB in franchise history for 14 YEARS, then to a carousel of the worst starting QBs in the league for two straight years. The Falcons needed a QB more than our literal two-decade long issue of not having a premier and consistent pass rusher. Now we have basically the best teacher for a developing QB, who’s technically been in the same situation. You guarantee his money, which he’s been scamming his whole career with anyway, and now he should have no issue being a mentor because it’s still his team (to lose) and he’s 36- COMING OFF A F***ING ACHILLES INJURY. Penix is NOT suppose to start this year. He’s for 2026 or a year after. We’ll have drafted a guy by then or signed Hassan Reddick. 😂 But f*** you and that pass rusher (kidding my guy 😂). Like bro, we have capable second year guys that we expect to take the jump and Grady is coming back. We also needed to solidify other defensive positions like CB2, SS, and OLB. Our owner is also old af so he wants to bring that first SB the city. Considering all that AND the Chiefs (lucky mfs) along with the Packers continued success with the formula, I’m sure you can see why they passed on drafting a pass rusher since there weren’t any on an Aaron Donald or Myles Garrett level. The Falcons should be a force for at least the next 15 years with all these first round skill positions. Also, watch Pitts finally show he’s the best TE in the league. Hope this helps.
Don’t do that to cousins again. It sends mixed messages like in Washington.
Too late
Not a mixed signal. It’s a clear signal. You got a couple years buddy.
JJ isn't NFL ready,Penix is. Two QBs are better than none.
No, the saying is, if you have 2 QBs you have none
@@MathisNFL 2 is 1, 1 is 0 is the saying I use. Kirt is the starter, PJR backup.They are not in a QB starter comp.Rolls are clearly defined.
I think "shining" is over hyped. He's a GREAT talent. But he still has learning to do. Looking at the stats, cousins has been on 🔥 Penix has been doing well, but still looking like a rookie from ALL credible reports that I've been reading. I think Penix will be a great QB but I have zero problem with him sitting and developing. I think either way we go, the falcons future is bright and one of either Cousins or Penix are still the best options we've had post Matt Ryan era.
valid
If Cousins turns out to be a great free agent for the Falcons, it means Penix is a failure as a pick.
If Penix starts and does great and justifys being picked that high, it means Cousins was a failure as a free agent.
Oh no, two QBs playing at a very high level in camp. What a DISASTER. I miss last season already.
Lol
reason kirk coming off injuries
Kirks age.
Kirks experience
Desmond ridder experiment
QB controversy
What the falcons did was smart. Let Penix develop behind a good QB for 2 to 3 years then ship Cussins off on the last year of his deal and start Penix.
nah
Cousins will retire a falcon.
@@ANGRYWOLVERINE2060-ft2nc hell no
He Came Out Late Cause Of Covid He Would’ve Came Out At The Age Off 21 Turning 22 & He Had To Rehab From His Injuries So Age Ain’t Nothing
Penix is the guy get over it
If they didnt pay Cousins that much would you still pick Penix round 1? Kids a gunslinger he'll get some touches in preseason.
Yes
24 is really young.Making sound like he 30
25-26 before he takes a snap
Yeah until he goes down with an injury... dude is the most injured qb in his draft
True
How many different times can you say your a hater 😂😂 congratulate and move on 😂
…
The Penix pick was the only pick if he was available. The falcons have been atrocious at QB since Matt Ryan left and the team did a horrible job of preparing for like after Matt Ryan. They had no possible long term solution waiting in the wings and the team suffered horribly from it.
Raheem is on his 2nd job so this is it. The GM is in his 2nd hire so this is his last shot. If the draft came first maybe they don’t sign a Cousins and they take Penix but the thing about the draft is you never know if your guy will be available when you pick and the coach and front office couldn’t risk going into the season without a legit answer at QB hence why they paid a premium to get an established guy that fits their system.
Even then they couldn’t make the same mistake they made with Matt and have an aging starting QB (who is coming off an injury) with no plan for after. I don’t think the falcons were set on taking a QB but I think the idea was, if there is a guy that we love in any of these Drafts and we have the chance to take him, we do it. They had Penix graded as an Elite prospect and 2nd to only Caleb Williams and be just fell to you at 8. They were so high on Penix that when they saw him falling they tried to trade up a spot and refused to trade back a spot and I agree with their assessment, Penix has elite potential.
Ideally the falcons wouldn’t have been at the top of the draft for at least the next 3 years and even when you do have a decent pick their is no guarantee that their are prospect at the position who grade out as well or if there is a player you like and you have a decent pick, their is no guarantee you get him.
So what the falcons did was a chess move and not a checkers move. They secured the present by getting a good Vet that can help them have success now and they got their guy, who they really believe in for the future and didn’t have to throw sh*t at a wall, bring in stop gap guys , and reach for guys in the draft in order to fill the most important position in sports after the Cousins era.
LOL
Your opinion of a fundamental error is widely looked at as a smart move now.
No, it’s not
He’s not playing this season
sad
Best case scenario
nor should he.
What nonsense. He can watch and then thrive.
JJ McCarthy is no where near as good as Michael Penix. But you would take him because he can develop for a couple of years?
Yes, if I sign a QB to 100 mil guranteed
Still a great pick kirk cousins is a known loser
Cousins record is AMAZING as a starter - IF the team he us facing has a record under .500 .....lol
He has like a 20% win rate starting against any team over .500.....it's disgustingly awful
24 old? REALLY! You got guys in college right now who are going into 7th and 9th year of eligibility. Get out of here with that nonsense.
Ultimate cope🤣
Please never be a GM. You would burn a city down😂
Put yourself in the shoes of a GM who got hired into a situation with no future QB plan (post Matt Ryan).
Imagine you’re Terry Fontenot going into the off-season after going 7-10 for 3 straight seasons with horrendous QB play. Would any GM in their right mind go after a Jacoby Brissett or Gardner Minshew after that? HELL NO. And especially considering the amount of talent on the rest of the roster being held back by said QB play.
So what do you do? You go after by far the best Free Agent QB that was on an MVP pace before he got hurt. Sweet, now we’re a playoff team for the next 2-3 years.
But wait… what do we do after he’s too old and isn’t playing at a high level anymore? (Matt Ryan situation all over again)… We’re gonna be too good to have a good enough draft position to get a high end QB in the next 2-3 drafts, let alone a top 10 pick.
So what do you do? Take the QB that you believe can be a franchise QB at the premium draft position, because you’re not gonna have that chance again. If Kirk is not good after 3 years, and we don’t have a good succession plan AGAIN (Matt Ryan situation!), Terry will get fired over that.
So what’s the lesson here MathisNFL…?
Instead of assuming things from an outside perspective, maybe do a little more research about the Falcons situation before you make a video acting like an expert.
Damn casual.
(And I would be more respectful in this comment, but I see the way you’re replying to other people telling them to “cope” so yeah, I’m gonna call you a damn casual lmao)
😂
@@MathisNFL not surprised that’s all you got to say😂
One of the dumbest picks in history. Typical Falcon losing mentality.
😭
Wel-
Watch the falcons win there 1st ring and many more 🤍🖤❤️👁️
